Join us for a creative and inspiring one-day workshop exploring the art of making with recycled tea bags, fabric and collage materials. Perfect for anyone interested in sustainable creativity, this hands-on session welcomes complete beginners as well as experienced makers.
Did you know that approximately 165 million tea bags are used every day in the UK, with most ending up in landfill? This workshop celebrates imaginative ways to repurpose everyday materials, putting sustainability at the heart of the creative process.
What You'll Make
During the day, you'll explore a range of techniques and create:
Handmade writing and sketch journals for your own creative practice or as unique gifts
Tea bag printing experiments to incorporate into future art projects
Decorative and functional bowls and vessels made from reused materials
Along the way you'll learn practical skills, discover new creative possibilities and gain ideas for making art in environmentally conscious and cost-effective ways.
No Experience Needed
This workshop is designed for all abilities. Whether you're an artist, crafter, journal keeper or simply curious about sustainable making, you'll be supported to experiment and enjoy the process.
Facilitator: Rosie Allen-Perdikeas
